The Friend Partnership approach

We don’t believe in a standard scope of work, but instead adopt a risk-based approach tailored to the requirements of each engagement. We hold discussions with investors and management and review the information available to identify the key risk areas of the transaction.

This approach means that our work is prioritised towards these areas, and ensures that potential issues or “deal-breakers” are identified as early as possible, which guarantees that the end-users receive a focused report.

Our transaction services team is made up of senior personnel with many years’ experience performing transaction based work in the largest six accountancy firms.

We pride ourselves on guaranteeing a high level of partner and director involvement in each engagement. This ensures that you are given the best quality “no surprises” advice.

The Friend Partnership transaction services team is experienced in reporting to banks, investors and other institutions, with the ability to react quickly to changes in information, deadlines or areas of focus.
